  • View from the Town of Agnone where we stayed. Without the heavily engineered system of roads and tunnels, this is not an easy place to get to.
  • Another view of the bridge leading to Agnone
  • As I was shooting across the little valley from outside my Hotel, I turned around and took the view in the windows.
  • A couple of us going down the main street for the first of many times.
  • Sunday morning and demolition on the second floor. Unique way of doing it.
  • Fountain in the Piazza Plebescito. Two excellent restaurants on this Piazza.
  • Close up of part of the fountain.
  • Very simple facade of the Chiesa di San Giacomo. It was originally constructed in the 13th century.
  • One of the many streets and alleys I took photos of in Agnone.
  • On the sides of these doors are ndocce, torches used in a renowned <br /> Christmas festival in Agnone. They are constucted in a very specified way of Silver Fir.
  • Stashing wood in the basement for the winter. Note the ndocce here, too.
  • Putting away wood at the far end of an alley.
  • Detail over the door of Chiesa Santa Croce, a small church built in the 14th century.
  • The old source of water for the neighborhood, now decorated.
  • Agnone wall ornament. Not sure what the meaning is, but there was a period of Venetian influence on the architecture.
  • A different lion on a wall.
  • Somehow this one lost its head, but is still on its perch.
  • The next series is Agnone doors. Italian doors are fascinating. They don't come from Home Depot.
  • Untitled photo
  • I like the doormat and the carving above 145. 143 looks like at some time it had a very messy spray paint job.
